From what was said in a previous post. I understand this add-on does exactly the same has deleting cookies, cache etc… it will only delete Private Data if you have the ‘Clear Private Data’ box ticked in Private Data setting in the Options tab.

It will only clear whatever you want it to clear by ticking the relevant boxes…. the add-on doesn’t hide your IP or anything it’s just a ‘cookie cleaner’(yes we know it cleans the cache) and so will Firefox if you tell it.

hahaha, not that he’s coming back to read these, but the fact that atthemoon read and posted on this means: 1) he was searching out this add-on himself 2) is angry at the world and therefore most likely miserable 3) spends a lot of time on the internet not pleasing women.

i don’t claim to disagree with him or care about what he says, and normally i wouldn’t consider being called “unChristian” an insult, but i agree with Lunatic here. unless you are making jokes, which are not allowed on the internet, save yourself and others the trouble of having to negotiate your garbage posts and self-righteous foolishness.

and thanks for this add-on, it’s awesome.

he’s probably uncomfortable with his own lack of performance in the bedside. Tools like this are awesome. So is being comfortable with your sexuality. Try making love while looking to porn. I think you’ll change your mind. There are many other uses for a tool like this when your computer is communal. What if your searching for a gift for someone else who uses your computer? What if your preparing a surprise? What if your researching a medical issue?

Whenever someone makes a comment like that, it only reveals their own problems in life. Not ours.

AtTheMoon… What are you talking about??? I feel sorry for you, that all your sad mind can consider is that this extension, designed for clearing of private data, somehow equates with activities that YOU feel qualified to be able to judge in others. Your expressed opinions seem very arrogant and unChristian. How do you presume to act as a judge of others? Do you think you are so above others? All people have a right to their own privacy as long as they do not hurt others. This extension clears sensitive private data from a system and thereby helps minimize identity theft and increases personal security from those that have no right to look into others private matters. You seem so angry and bothered by a simple privacy tool.

Will you be revising this extension so it can be used with Firefox version 2? I just attempted to install this and Firefox told me that it is not compatible with the new version. Thanks!

how is this any different from Tools>Clear Private Data
(which is built into Firefox)?

“Clear Private Data” will also delete Saved Passwords and Authenticated Sessions.

the difference between using this “Distrust” Extension and regular “clear private data” method is the following:
1) “clear private data” will clean out absolutely everything you ever visited in your browser, unless it has already been purged.
2) this extension will only clear out the stuff you don’t want people to find. This works because you enable “distrust” in the taskbar when you want your “private” session to begin and click it once again to end it. Doing this will only clear the stuff you visited when it was enabled.

Just clicking in the .xpi link must prompt you to let http://www.skattertech install the extension in your browser. Once you had given permission to this site, you must click again on the .xpi link and it lauchs the extension installer. Hope this helps :) Cheers
